Genesis was renamed Norton 360 on May 31, 2006. In May 2005, Microsoft announced Windows Live OneCare, a security suite with similar functionalities, slated for release in 2006. Genesis was slated for release in September. Windows Vista compatibility was a major aspect of Genesis. Phishing protection and real-time heuristics were also planned. Genesis would differ from Symantec's other consumer security products by incorporating file backup and PC maintenance tools with antivirus capabilities and a firewall. Symantec announced Project Genesis on February 7, 2006.
Norton 360 is compatible with Windows XP (excluding 64-bit editions), Windows Vista and Windows 7. Additional functions, including parental controls and e-mail spam filtering, are available as extensions developed also by Symantec. The package is distributed as a download, a box copy, or is preinstalled on computers as OEM software. What distinguishes this suite from Norton Internet Security is the inclusion of file backup and PC maintenance capabilities. The package includes an antivirus, a personal firewall, a phishing protection program and a backup program. Norton 360, developed by Symantec, is marketed as an "all-in-one" computer security suite.
